Studying the mechanics of gait in healthy and clinical populations can greatly improve our knowledge of movement. During gait, the foot and ankle functions to attenuate shock at impact, provide stability and support of the lower limb, and aid in forward propulsion of the body. Given such important factors of the ankle/foot complex in gait, it is plausible that changes in foot function may...
